Went a little nuts on Amazon over the weekend but got some good deals. I ordered Olivia and Jai, Zemindar, Vainglory, Marianna, Roselynde, The Reckoning, Falls the Shadow, and The Traitor's Wife ( I read this one before from the library but I needed to own one for myself - It is a keeper!). If I were to be snowed in for a year, I don't think I would run out of books on my TBR pile or should I say TBR MOUNTAIN!!

Just hit the Rosalind Laker Jackpot at the library discard bin. Got 5 books of hers including The Venetian Mask, The Golden Tulip, Circle of Pearls, The Jeweled Path and The Silver Touch. Guess they have moved on from "H" to "L" in their weeding. Will have to keep checking back for the rest of the alphabet.

I'm undergoing the book fast right now, but am pleased to report that I received my first Pamela Belle book from PBS today (The Moon in the Water); I'm eager to see whether it lives up to Misfit's raves about the author!

I also got a freebie from my publishers, a book about the Fed. I know, dull tedious stuff, right? They offered me one of Michelle's books, but I had them all...

From Amazon, just arrived (ordered before the book fast), a Vine book (Joseph Kanon's new novel) and a book about the 'dark ages', The Inheritance of Rome, by Chris Wickham.

lol, you sound like me. I know it's hard though I book browse alot but struggle not to buy.

I posted this on the best thing also but I won an EC book of my choice from Historical Tapestry, I picked A Place Beyond Courage which only leaves her more romancey (the Wild Hunt, Running Vixen and The Leopard Unleashed) and Daughters of the Grail to purchase to own them all.

Uh oh. The pressure is on. I'm almost done with the last in this trilogy. It's been a lot of fun reading about this period in England's history (civil war, reformation, etc.) and not having Charles and his court center stage, although the Earl of Rochester and his merry gang of "wits" figure prominently in this one.

PS, if you read the entire series and Alethea is hard to find go for an ILL. There's at least ONE library in the country that has a copy.
